Fans of Twilight will finally get to see the whole saga comes to an end with this week's release of Breaking Dawn Part 2. But before you catch Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and the rest of the film's stars acting out the highly anticipated scenes, I thought it would be fun to take a look back at what the red-hot actors were doing before they were cast in the series. Some were unknown, others were child stars, so let's take a look back at their careers.

The Twilight cast united at Comic-Con in San Diego today to chat up the final installment of their series, Breaking Dawn Part 2, which hits theaters in November. Kristen Stewart chose a neon skirt from BCBG Max Azria and Barbara Bui sneakers for the event while Robert Pattinson showed off his longer hair. The duo posed on the red carpet before heading into a large panel with their costars. Kellan Lutz, Ashley Greene, Peter Facinelli, and Nikki Reed were on hand after kicking off the fun at a special party in their honor yesterday. It's a bittersweet appearance for the actors, since it's their last time at Comic-Con on behalf of Twilight, but Rob joked that he might just return next year dressed as Edward Cullen. There were some more serious moments during the press day, with Kristen chatting about the possibility of sex scenes and her vampire transformation as Bella.

Ashley wore a custom Donna Karan, one of the event's sponsors, to join Nikki and leading man Peter Facinelli. Rocking neon, Nikki was in Michael Kors.

Meanwhile, across the pond in England, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, and Robert Pattinson were busy with the UK premiere of Breaking Dawn.

The Breaking Dawn Part 1 gang reconvened for an afterparty in LA last night following their big LA premiere.

The Breaking Dawn Part 1 gang reconvened for an afterparty in LA last night following their big LA premiere. Taylor Lautner, Peter Facinelli, Jackson Rathbone, and Kellan Lutz horsed around with series creator Stephenie Meyer, as well as leading lady Elizabeth Reaser. The bash was conveniently held at the Nokia Theater, where all the fun had gone down prior to the screening. It seemed all the stars were in a great mood, and Kellan was effervescent when we caught him on the carpet and he gushed about all the opportunities Twilight has given him.

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson were cute on the red carpet, but they evidently skipped the bash. She looked amazing in a high-slitted J. Mendel gown and spoke with us about the amazing Carolina Herrera dress she gets to wear as Bella Swan. She said, "I was very relieved to love it as soon as I put it on." Robert, meanwhile, said the thing he'll miss most about Edward Cullen is the opportunity to work with his castmates. He said, "I've grown up with them, so it's like leaving school. You might not necessarily see anyone again!"

Julianne Hough wore a tuxedo dress from Rachel Zoe's collection to the NYC premiere of Footloose at the Tribeca Grand last night. She was joined on the patterned carpet by her costar Kenny Wormald. Julianne and company moved on to an afterparty at Catch Roof, where Peter Facinelli got in on the photo fun. Julianne and Kenny have been doing lots of press in the run-up to the remake's release tomorrow. We caught up with both actors at their recent press junket, and Julianne revealed her favorite dancing scene in the whole film. Julianne told us, "They were all so much fun, but I loved the country line dance 'cause it was so sexy, it was such cool dancing. My mom and my three sisters came down for it. They were in the movie, they got to do the scene. They were dancing, and it was just a blast — we had so much fun." There are more interviews in store for Kenny and Julianne. She tweeted this morning, "Gonna do Sirius radio, NY live WNBC, and then Jimmy Fallon later! A great day of interviews for Footloose before we head to London!"
